Welcome to Golden Fish Restaurant

This charming restaurant has created an unparalleled dining experience for Colombo's seafood lovers since the day it opened. Consistently ranked among the city's top restaurants, it follows the seafood market concept, with an emphasis on offering variety, freshness and quality to patrons. Make your selection fresh from the catch of the day, choose your sauce, cooking method (grilled, steamed, fried, curried) and style (Thai, Sri Lankan, Chinese, Indian, Continental). Then relax with a drink and gaze out at the man-made lagoon while our chefs prepare your meal in an exhibition kitchen. There is also an open air dining area. Get hooked.

Giving you the full ocean-to-table experience, right by the beach in contemporary Jubail, this is where you want to dine in Easter Province. Once you’ve spotted the most alluring fish or crustacean in our counter (charged by weight), you can decide how you’d like it cooked – in Mediterranean, Far Eastern, Arabic or Japanese style. Our waiters can then guide you through the selection of starters, salads, soups and drinks. The dining room is buzzing and vast, so you might be seated on fuchsia floor cushions, on cream leather banquettes, while some tables have sea views, others invite you to keep a watchful eye on the slick kitchen.

Our local fish and shellfish is hauled directly from dhow to counter-top on a daily basis, but we also go to great lengths to import the finest foreign varieties: our salmon, mussels, sea bass, tuna, oysters arrive twice a week from Europe, and we make sure they travel from source to plate with as little fuss as possible. All of these offerings are all lined up in the display area, all shimmery-gilled and bright-eyed, so you can pick your lunch and dinner. among which Arabs favorites include Sherri fish, hammour and safi.
